The UnKingdom of God (Book Review)

On occasion, I review books for Mike Morrell’s Speakeasy network.  When Mark Van Steenwyk’s book The Unkingdom of God:  Embracing the Subversive Power of Repentance became available, it looked like something I’d enjoy reading, partly due to my interest and admiration of Anabaptist ecclesiology.  Van Steenwyk is a cofounder “Mennonite Worker,” a Christian intentional community […]

Coffee Shop Conversations: Making the Most of Spiritual Small Talk (Book Review)

Too much of what passes as “evangelism” in the contemporary church is nothing more than religious propaganda.  Armed with a “gospel track” comprised of a series of biblical verses (invariably taken out of context, i.e. “The Roman Road” or “The Four Spiritual Laws”) a would-be evangelist hits the road, with the intention of getting people […]

Frank Viola’s “Revise Us Again”

  I believe that Frank Viola is one of the more critical thinkers in western Christian thought. His website “Beyond Evangelical” (www.frankviola.org) is one of my must read blogs. His books (especially Jesus Manifesto: Restoring the Supremacy and Sovereignty of Jesus Christ, which he wrote with Leonard Sweet) are among what I consider to be […]
